.@independent4B. Please tell me what I made up. Beyond doubt it's my opinion that it is morally wrong for nurses to strike and that the state should pay them properly even so. That's barely controversial. But the facts I gave about the ballot are not made up. — PolitiTweet.org

.@secmoderns. But Secondary Mods are, on average, smaller than comps, as are grammars. I think you may be assuming that number of schools = number of pupils. And perhaps that may not be so. — PolitiTweet.org

.@Anthony27821270 Indeed, s I pointed out to Ms Cullen, she was careful to ballot hospital by hospital, rather than nationally, for fear of not getting a national majority. I think the RCN is in a bit of a crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ewan31500487. Several points needed to be better known. Striking is a choice, and those whose job is mercy need to decide whether it is justified. You can often improve pay and conditions without striking. And the RCN membership is by no means wholly behind strike action. — PolitiTweet.org

.@ChristChurchTe1 Several grammars, and Direct Grant Schools, did indeed become fee-charging schools. But we are discussing the rump which remained in the state system, mostly in better-off areas, which are now in reality super-selective comprehensives. — PolitiTweet.org
